I am an Emmy-nominated and award-winning game designer with expertise in gameplay systems and world-building projects for online, AI, mobile, tabletop, and interactive entertainment clients. This includes feature roadmaps, characters/story, token design, and economics. 

​

My strengths are ecosystem design, economic tuning, and creative content development. I've done this for many gaming categories such as web games, mobile games, digital collectibles, and token systems design in Web3 gaming.

​

I have 20+ years as a game designer with credits on more than 50+ shipped titles worth $800+ million in revenue. In many cases, I created gameplay systems from the ground up, championed them with internal client teams, took them through revisions, and tuned them up through launch and live service.

​

That experience also turns out to be highly relevant to Web3 design and economics, which involves designing mechanisms for digital assets, modeling and balancing complex virtual economies, and using game theory to incentivize users to act in the network's best interest.

 

I was the lead game designer on Magic: The Gathering for 11 years. I've also worked on Star Wars, Dungeons & Dragons, Harry Potter, Transformers, Pokémon, MLB, Marvel, FarmVille, and Zynga Poker.
